Soon Carolyn and her daughter Hannah are driving to an ocean beach house situated in scenic Coronado. A house that hides a secret about its glamorous former owner, and how she became estranged from her family. Soon Carolyn’s life is full of new friends including the charming and handsome marine archaeologist Ben Wade who is interested in taking their friendship further. But Carolyn’s husband may not be ready to end their marriage. Not now his wife is wealthy.
This is a feel good beach romance for folks who like a clean read with a touch of cozy mystery and women’s fiction.
